Investigation Technician for the Maintenance Unit

In Region Gotland, you can develop and grow, both as an individual and together with others. When you work with us, you contribute to making Gotland an even better place for people in all walks of life. We make each other better.

The Maintenance Unit

Water is our most important food source, and Gotland's water supply is a pressing and current issue.

The Maintenance Unit is part of the Water and Waste department.

The Water and Waste department works with the development, renewal, and operation of our facilities such as water sources, water treatment plants, sewage treatment plants, pipelines, landfills, and recycling centers. The department works to ensure a safe and sustainable water supply for our subscribers and contributes to Gotland's sustainable development through good planning, prioritization, and engaged employees with significant personal responsibility, within the framework of a good working environment.

Within the organization, there is extensive and solid experience, and you will always have the support of the entire Water and Waste department. The department consists of about 130 employees who look forward to welcoming you.

The Maintenance Unit consists of five groups with team leaders, totaling about 30 employees who work with facilities, new production, and maintenance.

Your Responsibilities

As an investigation technician with us, you will work on the maintenance of water pipelines throughout Gotland. Your tasks will include flushing water pipes and, if necessary, operating the flushing vehicle.

Your role includes troubleshooting water pipelines and water areas. To support your work, you will use various measuring instruments to measure pressure, flow, and levels, for example. For more extensive investigations, equipment such as cameras, smoke machines, and measuring instruments are available.

Communication and documentation occur in IT-based systems. You may also assist with other tasks within the Water unit. On-call duty may occur.

You will be based in Visby and have all of Gotland as your area of responsibility.

Who are you?

We prefer that you have a few years of experience in the field of flushing vehicles or suction vehicles. A B and C driver's license is required.

It is desirable if you have experience in water facility technology or equivalent. YKB is a merit. We provide internal training on the flushing vehicle initially, and otherwise, there will be external training.
